RE: Shih Tzu Puppy Not Eating

When an animal stops eating it is a sign something is wrong I certainly would not introduce new food or drink items when you don't know what the problem is yet. You may have already fed it something it can't tolerate. You should contact your vet like you would your doctor about yourself if you could not eat. Eating = life.

I have had two shih tzus very picky eaters would not eat any foods but Caesars dog foods. His favorite is the chicken. Try this and see if it starts eating if not, then you may want to take your shih-tzu to the vet may be sick are have worms. I have a 9 month old right know he only eats Ceasars canine cuisine tried all other foods. He will only eat this one even my vet told me to try the Ceasar wet foods. Also loves the beneful dry dog foods. Give this a try and let me know how it works. Thanks

I don't know if you can get this food in Thailand, but it's the best! It is called Merrick in the can. They make a puppy variety too. I've yet to have a dog refuse their "Smothered Comfort" with whole chicken thighs. I hope this helps.

Of course I would do the Vet visit for sure but something I did that helped mine was goats milk. Just a little over her puppy food. Not much b/c it could cause loose stool.

My advice to you would be to take the pup to the vet or call the vet and ask what could be wrong, the dog not eating shouldnt be taken lightly, the dog needs to be seen and needs to start eating, something could be very wrong, then again the dog could just simply be very picky about food, my dog was like that, we went through 100 brands of dog food before we could find something she liked. I hope this was helpful, and please for the dogs sake contact a pet professional and ask their opinion.

First off I think I would have the Vet check it to make sure something isn't wrong. If its fine I personally would consider home cooking for it,

I have two Shihtzu's, One of mine I think would have ended up starving if I hadn't turned over to home cooking real food for him,
He's a totally different dog now,
Because of the long struggles with him, I ended up opening a Pet Bakery , I Have since run into several other owners of small dogs that had the same problems, But once turned over to real food their pets stated loving their food, some owner were totally amazed with the difference in their small pets, all thanks to real food.

Here's a pic of my beautiful Shih-tzu's :)
Can't resist showing them off every chance I get
I keep them trimmed and they love it that way,
When their hair starts to get a tad long they will beg to be trimmed, they are just to Sweet for words, :)
